I walked into the postoffice, And saw upon the wall, A bright Red Cross before me; I smiled, then gave my all. And then I saw the blind man Behind his glass showcase; Seeing only with his finger: But a smile was on his face. I stopped and bought a paper, Then humbly stood while he Made change with seeing fingers, And thanked me gratefully. Outside a humble laborer sd by me on the street; His shirt was torn, his pants were frayed. And tired were his feet. De But when a child smiled upward, He was richest in the land; And stooping, plucked a flower For the child’s little hand. The sun in slowly setting, Spread glory over all; Splashed all its wondrous colors My senses to enthrall. All these It saw while walking, And as I homeward trod I couldn’t keep from thinking That f had walked with God. —JANET PARKS.
